Usernames in tango.info have exactly 8 letters of the latin alphabet. Preferred are names that are related to your real name.
If you forgot your username, please see: tango.info username recovery
If you want to create an account see: create account
The 8 letter usernames can be used directly in URLs, e.g. http://www.tango.info/tobiasco
The username should not:
- contain any of the words: tango, milonga, event, festival
- be a name of
- a geographic entity, e.g. a city "mannheim".
- a person
- common first name, e.g. "benjamin"
- common last name, e.g. "pfeiffer"
- name of person in tango history, e.g. Pugliese, Francini, Castillo
- be a word (esp. not in English or Spanish)
- singular, e.g. "marathon"
- plural, e.g. "festivals"
List and examples
The list of registered users contains more than 2,497 entries.
Examples:
- Lhellemo (Lars Hellemo)
- Fassierp (Philippe Fassier)
- Michaelr (Michael Rühl)
- Andykami (Andy Kamienski)
- Danikaes (Daniel Kaesmayr)
Rationale for eight letter rule
- users that sign up later shall not have the disadvantage of longer names, vs users that sign up early and get shorter.
- presenting all username in a list gives a more harmonious picture if they are of equal length
